Why?  Pretty strong reverse splits in his career…

.200 vs LHP

.260 vs RHP

He's due

[brewers888]

Lets hope we can get the split tomorrow. This one looks to be over.

[brewers888]

Ok game over so time to find something else to do.

[markedman5]

Well that got out of hand in a hurry

[brewers888]

Good thing the Cardinals are not as good as the powerhouse Phillies or so I've been told in previous game threads.

You have an abnormal habit of claiming that things were said when they weren't and then using that to play the victim card. I said that they were near-equivalent and that if you considered one good, that the other must be good, too. Even now, most of the projection sites have them winning virtually an identical number of games.

Liberatore isn't this good. Still plenty of time to string together some hits and put up some runs. Hiura probably going to hit another homer today so I gotta watch the whole thing anyway.

This is the last time I discuss this but you claimed the Phillies were better which is flat out not the case and if they are it means the Brewers won the division by 10 plus games which would be great.

This offense is such garbage

[brewers888]

Cain has to be released pretty soon.

[Opening Day]

It helps to pitch out of a 0 out jam when you get first pitch called strikes that are clearly out of the zone to the next 3 batters.

I think we need a big bat regardless but not having Adames and Renfroe makes this offense terrible.

[damuelle]

So that's 4 called strikes well outside the zone this inning, right?  One to Hiura, one to Cain, two to Mathias.

[brewers888]

Mathias is just another AAAA filler like Pablo Reyes.

[brewers888]

Im checking out of this game so good luck and hopefully the Brewers find a way to score at least 6 runs and win.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Always nice when a pitcher can throw 6 balls and get two called strikes and a groundout.

Here is my post verbatim from that in-game thread, "You can't say the Cardinals are a good team, and not the Phillies. Most projection sites, including 538, have them winning virtually an identical number of games." Nowhere did I flat-out say the Phillies are better. I said that if one was good, then so was the other. So, quit making up your own facts, and then saying "you're done discussing this" when you've been called out on it. 

[damuelle]

Apparently those are balls if you throw them in the exact same location to Corey Dickerson. Or maybe the umpire just had something in his eye in the Brewers' half of the inning and it's cleared now.

[markedman5]

Dillard is so bad……..

[Brewcrew82]

Cardinals making us pay for our defensive miscues this series. 

[Opening Day]

Why are these guys in the booth keeo complaining a out error/hit calls?  Who cares?  

[Brewcrew82]

We need Adames and Renfroe back really bad. 

[jason21nl]

Really makes me miss BA and Schroeder.  There was absolutely zero chance Urias was going to throw the ball to 3rd.  

[markedman5]

Dillard just suggested that Urias was probably thinking about throwing to 3rd with 2 outs and a runner on 2nd only…….yeah Tim…..routine ground ball to short and he’s thinking about a tag play at 3rd……just stop trying to over analyze every play……he booted it…..that’s it…..nothing else needs to be said…..

disappointing performance all around today……especially with Mikolas going tomorrow.

[Nola Beery]

This is just bad baseball. The average 14yo ball player knows this.  Poor defense plus bad pitching plus clueless at bats. The batting strategy seems to be get behind and try to make the pitcher throw many pitches before you finally watch strike 3. we can't get runners home
